- The old people of Templemore used to go to the bogs and bring bags of rushes. They used to tie them to long ash poles and make brooms out of them. They stopped making them about 1920.
- In olden times rushes were used for lighting. They were peeled of their green bark and were dipped in parffin oil and they usually burned for about fifteen minutes.
- Long ago people used shear the sheep and gather the wool and wash it and leave it dry for some time. Then it was brought out to be spun by the women of the district and made into thread.
- Many years ago the people used light fires with paper and a magnifying glass. They used put a piece of paper on the ground and put sticks on top of it, and they used get a magnifying glass and face it to the sun. The heat would light the paper, and the paper would light the sticks.
